We would be delighted if you could join us for Refugee Legal’s Annual Dinner to be held on Tuesday 21 November 2017.

We are honoured that our keynote speaker this year is Mr Thomas Albrecht, the Regional Representative of the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees in Canberra. Mr Albrecht is one of the UNHCR’s most experienced representatives, having worked in a range of senior posts across the globe over the last 30 years.

Our annual dinner is an opportunity to celebrate the year’s outstanding achievements and to focus on future challenges. It’s also a key fundraiser to support our vital work defending the rights and dignity of asylum seekers, refugees and disadvantaged migrants
